<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3068363, member: 19463&quot;]Define &quot;semi-official&quot;.&nbsp; Is that like sort-of pregnant? There are many less than official coins of Pius but I am not sure how were are to know whether the mints were sanctioned and operated by the central government or made by someone not connected with the Emperor but who was filling a need for circulating coinage.&nbsp; We assume fourrees were made to cheat and steal but solid coins that are out of the norms are harder to explain.&nbsp; I find them interesting but I know nothing.&nbsp; These are not plated.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]770739[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]770740[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]770741[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
